Computerized tomography has been used in the evaluation of the intracranial lesions. Recently the usage of computerized tomography has progressively widened in many fields of clinical practice. In orthopedics computerized tomography has been tried in the diagnosis and the determination of treatment of tumors, spinal disorders, hip disorders and knee problem. Four problem cases in which concentric reduction could not be obtained after closed reduction of hip dislocations were evaluated by computerized tomography from Apr, 1, 1983 to Mar. 31, 1984 in the Capital Armed Forces General Hospital and following conclusiions were obtained: 1. Open reduction revealed that muscles(adductor and pyriformis muscles), joint capsule and osteocartilaginous loose bodies (femoral and acetabular) were interposed to hinder concentric reduction. Large posterior acetabular fragment induced instability and redislocation of the hip. 2. When there were 2-3 mm lack of symmetry of the two femoral heads or any abnormal findings(breakage of Shenton's line etc.) in plain roentgenography, computerized tomography was recommanded, and muscles, osteocartilaginous loose bodies and instability were found. 3. Computerized tomography is an easy simple method and has a great diagnostic value in the evaluation of asymmetry and instability after closed reduction of traumatic hip dislocations.

Hepatolithiasis is characterized by its frequent recurrence, and its requirement for multiple interventions which can be performed radiologically, endoscopically or surgically. Although hepatic resection - concomitant removal of hepatic stones and its provocative pathology as well - has remained the definitive treatment of hepatolithiasis, the burden of the surgery limits its widespread application. In a certain proportion of patients, those for whom hepatic resection and endoscopic/percutaneous approaches are not indicated, surgical removal of intrahepatic stones can be attempted. In those circumstances, hepatic stones located outside the direct visual field can make the stone-extracting procedure cumbersome. We experienced an operation of a 66-year-old patient who had already received left lateral sectionectomy, cholecystectomy and choledochojejunostomy. His condition was due to impacted, recurrent stones packed between the hepatic hilum and the second confluence of the hepatic duct. Instead of revising the prior choledochojejunostomy site, after entering the jejunum 4 cm below the choledochojejunostomy site, we inserted a rigid nephroscope into the hepatic duct. Under the magnified view presented by a telescope inside the nephroscope, stone extracting was easily done using forceps inserted into the nephroscope. We think a nephroscope is useful in extracting intrahepatic stones, especially for large impacted stones located below the second confluence of the hepatic duct.
